Your place to find handmade art and gifts

My Story

Arts and crafts has been something I just "have" to do since I was very young. My mom always said that she could sit me in a corner with a piece of paper and pencil and I would be happy for hours. My first love has always been drawing and trying to make my pictures  as realistic as possible. At least how I see them anyway.

At 16 years old I applied for my first business license and sold screen printed t-shirts with my design out of the trunk of my car.  I was later introduced to stained glass and sandblasting which became a large part of my business for many years. I have been blessed to have the opportunity to learn so many beautiful techniques over the last 60 years and have had the pleasure to offer so many friends, family and customers just what they wanted or needed for those special events in their lives. Some of my favorite mediums are water color, acrylic, heat transfer and sign vinyl, machine embroidery, kiln fired enamel, jewelry, sandblasting, painted glassware and digital design. So, be sure to come back often because you never know what cool new things you will see here. Thank you for visiting and becoming part of my Art From the Heart journey.
